  1. They are typically meaningless as they are rarely taken.
  2. I wonder at what point they increase that $ per win.
  3. They are both rehabbing in Ft Myers right now and have had no setbacks YET. I'd still wait and see what it looks like in ST.
  4. The only curse was us having to deal with Dan Shaughnessy.
  5. In Kutter's defense, around the time you start your sample, Kutter closes in on his career high in IP. A falloff is kind of expected at that point. Kutter through 29 starts: 161 IP, 4.08 ERA, 149 K, 44 BB, 4.63 FIP Bello full season (30 starts): 162.1 IP, 4.49 ERA, 153 K, 64 BB, 4.19 FIP Post ASB: Kutter 4 QS Bello 5 QS It's very close, but my worry is about Bello's bb rate (7th highest for pitchers with IP > 150 in 2024). Crawford's HR/9 was astronomical, but I believe that number is less elastic than bb rate.
  6. I think they may trade for a Catcher. They do need late inning relief help, but I'm worried they'll just rely on sliding Whitlock into the 7-8-9 innings with Hendriks/Champan/Slaten. I'm not concerned about the RHB aspect.
  7. I don't know if they "know they are going in with a lowball offer" or if they just have a value in mind and refuse to budge on it for certain players. Soto made them get a little uncomfortable and stretch their bidding. Lots of risk with a long term Fried contract IMO.
  8. I don't find bref to be mobile friendly either. I think both of them do the bare minimum to be modern websites.
  9. On Fulmer, it's hard to be worried about a guy signed on a two year minor league deal. Only upside with those moves IMO.
  10. My counter argument is that about 50% of FA signings just don't work out, even the expensive ones. No matter what, it's a bit of a gamble. However, the cheaper signings are low risk/low reward.
  11. Closer by throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing when it finally sticks.
  12. We all saw how the bullpen fared down the stretch last season. Maybe the additional arms can help fix that?
  13. Good stat. I should put it in a post.
  14. He must REALLY not like Buehler.
  15. Criswell's 99 innings need to be replaced and Pivetta's 145. I think it can be done. If anyone is out, Kutter can pick up the slack. Defense is the same for now. Bregman is not going to HOU. Maybe his price drops and he signs here?
  16. *goes and checks his splits on FanGraphs* Home at SF: 632 OPS Away from SF: 852 OPS Oh...
  17. I don't understand the Conforto signing. Do they think his numbers will pop leaving SF?
  18. At least it's something different!
  19. The Dodgers rotation is Glasnow, Yamamoto, Snell, Stone, Gonsolin, Miller, May (LOL), Ohtani (???). I think they signed Snell to replace Buehler's spot.
  20. Lots of ifs the past few years. Maybe they can shore it up the pen over the remainder of the winter? On paper, this rotation is much better than last seasons and the 2024 version was solid per fWAR.
  21. Getting multiple years of Verdugo and Wong for one year of Betts was actually a win. 🙎‍♂️🔫
  22. I specifically left those two out because of Old Red’s propensity to throw “suspects” around.
